The latest boxed charts data is in and, wie erwartet, it’s a big win for the recently released Pokémon Scharlachrot und Pokémon Violett, with both entries coming in at number one and two.

In terms of which of the two proved more popular, it seems most opted for Violet and its Legendary Pokémon Miraidon, with this version making up 52% of total sales. Meanwhile, Scarlet made up 42%, and the Dual Packcontaining both games in one handy boxentered the charts at number six, making up the remaining 6% des Umsatzes.

Not only that, but as reported by the folks over at GamesIndustry, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is now the second biggest boxed launch in the franchise’s history, Verkauf 25% more than Pokémon Schwert und Schild in its respective first week and sitting pretty behind the current franchise leader Pokémon Schwert und Schild waren ein sehr solider Start in die HD-Generation von Pokémon-Spielen. It also managed to sell 56% more than Pokémon-Legenden: Arceus und zwar satt 70% more than Pokémon Brillanter Diamant und Glänzende Perle.

In terms of revenue, jedoch, Scarlet and Violet actually brought in more money than Sun and Moon due to the price difference between the two generations. It’s just a suggestion, but perhaps The Pokémon Company can siphon some of that money into a few performance patches, kann sein? Wir werden sehen.

Anderswo, Sonic Frontiers is hanging onto the top ten by a thread, dropping six spots in just one week. Considering three of those are taken up by Pokémon, we don’t think that’s half bad. In terms of sales split, the Switch version is winning out at 40%, followed closely by the PS5 at 32%.
